' I n me n t r J J/ieJ/HSanaelsoza Attorney Patented Dec. 2, 1930 UNITED STATES ALFRED M. SAMUELSON, F I IENNING, MINNESOTA CREAM COOLER Application filed August 27, 1929. Serial No, 388,759.

The present invention relates to a cooling mechanism for milk, cream and the like and has for its prime object to provide an apparatus whereby the animal heat may be removed from milk, cream and the like in a convenient and expeditious manner.

A further very important object of the invention resides in the provision of an apparatus of this nature which is exceedingly simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, thoroughly efiicient and reliable in use and otherwise well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed.

With the above and numerous other objects in View as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.

In the drawings:

Figure l is a top plan view of the apparatus embodying the features of my invention,

Figure 2 is through,

Figure 3 is a vertical section therethrough,

Figure 4 is an enlarged detail section taken substantially on the line lf-4 of Figure 2, and

Figure 5 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 5-5 of Figure 1.

Referring to the drawings in detail it Wlll. be seen that the numeral 5 denotes a receptacle adapted to contain cool water, ice, or some other cooling medium. A pipe coil 6 is mounted in the receptacle and at its lower 5 end has an outwardly radiating projection 7 threadedly received in the collar 8 at the inner end of a nipple 9 which extends through the lower portion of the side wall of the receptacle 5.

A metal washer 10 is disposed about the nipples against the collar 8 while a fabric or other suitable washer 11 is disposed thereabout between the washer 10 and the inner a horizontal section therei surface of the side wall of the receptacle 5.

The metallic washer 10 is disposed about the outer end of the nipple and holds a fabric washer or the like 11 against the outer surface of the receptacle 5.

A collar 14 is threadably engaged with the outer end of the nipple to hold the washer 10 in place and from this collar 10 extends downwardly and outwardly a pipe extension 15.

At the upper end of the pipe coil 6 is a riser 16 to which is fastened, by means of a union 17, a nipple 18 which is engaged in the lower end of the funnel 19. A clip 20 is se cured to the riser 16 to fit over the upper edge of the receptacle 5 for assisting in holding the pipe coil in place.

From the above description it will beseen that when milk or the like is poured into the funnel it will flow through the pipe coil and out through the outlet pipe extension 15 and of course when it passes through the pipe coil will be cooled by the medium in the receptacle 5. 7

It is thought that the construction, utility and advantages of this invention will now be quite apparent to those skilled in this art without a more detailed description thereof.

The present embodiment of the invention has been disclosed in considerable detail merely for the purposes of exemplification since in actual practice it attains the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the invention and the above description.

It will be apparent that changes in the details of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its advantages.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:

In an apparatus of the class described, a receptacle, a pipe coil in the receptacle, the lower end of the pipe coil having an out- Wardly radiating extension, a nipple connected with said extension and disposed through an opening in the side of the receptacle, a downwardly inclined outlet pipe extension directly engaged on the nipple, a riser on. the upper end of the pipe coil, a funnel, means for detachably connecting the funnel with the riser, a clip fastened to the riser and adapted for engagement over the upper edge of the receptacle.

In testimony whereof I afix my signature.

ALFRED M. SAMUELSON.
